Root Beer Cake
2009-09-20 10:00:00 Now I have to give you the full disclosure here: this isn't my recipe. If you haven't heard me say this before, most recipes I post are recipes I've seen other places but have tweaked them here or there to suit my fancy (I love saying the word fancy. As in "fancy that" or "I'd fancy some root beer cake." I suppose deep down I wish I were British) but before I get too sidetracked over vocabulary what I was saying was that most recipes, while not entirely original, are changed here and there.And then there are those that are completely original (which I'll usually brag about) and then there are some that I've had in my files so long I couldn't possibly remember who the original source was.However, this one fits none of the above. Instead, I found it at Joy the Baker's place and I'd feel funny about sharing it except that it seems she herself was passing it along from the book she references so I don't feel the need to get too worked up over sourcing on this one. And I promis...

In Beer We Trust
2009-08-16 01:42:00 Dumping beer on a baseball player is as American as mom, apple pie and preemptive war. We dumped bombs on Iraq, and no ones been charged. So why are we picking on Johnny Macchione, who was charged with a misdemeanor.It's been a rough couple weeks for beer. All we are saying is give beer a chance.A white cop, black professor and the president of the United States of America required beer to find common ground.Now an over-paid athlete is pissed off because a drunk fan acted stupidly. By the way, am I allowed to say he acted stupidly, even though I don't know all the facts?Maybe I should apologize. I could have calibrated my words differently. There, are you happy, bitch!To make...

Bleachers, Beer, Bums, and Battery?
2009-08-14 20:31:00 Come on Wrigley Field security, consult the DVR next time. John Machionne almost got away with a "not-so-serious" crime of delivering a beer shower to Phillies' player, Shane Victorino. Serious - because it's a professional game, no objects are to be thrown on the filed, and eye injury from the beer or head injury from the baseball could have occurred. Not-so-serious because Victorino shrugged it off and John Machionne - the admitted culprit - turned himself in. Shane Victorino Wow! Yelling, yanked, and booed, ...the poor, innocent guy who was ejected didn't have a chance, put on blast in Bartman fashion, while the perpetrator deceives and points. *Incidentally, I don't fault Bartman for wanting a baseball. Ballparks should be built to...

Jerks In Haiku: The Beer Thrower Exposed

Unfortunately, Wrigley security initially tossed out the wrong guy - they ejected someone who was taunting Victorino after the jackass a few seats over had tossed the beer. On Twitter, @Adambuckled reported that he had sent a text message to Cubs Security who said they'd try to get the right guy. Hopefully they did. (Apparently they did not - see update below)But, since ChicagoNow has given me this soapbox, I'm posting this picture so everyone will know what a jackass...
Stop Cab Violence by having a Patrick Kane Beer Summit
2009-08-11 20:47:00 Chicago cab drivers deserve respect. And so does the Buffalo cab driver that was allegedly accosted and meddled with by Patrick Kane and his cuz. Mediate with a beer, but wait until Patrick turns 21, or until he has some spare change. See Rob Manker article. Patrick Kane - Chicago Blackhawks Player George Lutfallah of the Chicago Dispatcher, says that cab driving is dangerous. So he calls for a day of prayer. I agree. Having "stop the violence" rallies don't work. It takes more patience to have a peaceful way of protesting, bringing light to the issue of cab driver dangers. Patrick Kane (see video) should be praying with the cabbies and Michael Vick should be at the humane society....

Obama "Beer Summit", Crowley Press Conference - history!

It was the first time in American and world history a sitting president met publicly with a white police officer and the person the officer arrested, a black man. And to add to the moment, the president is African American. I think the teachable moment President Obama referred to was that two gentlemen of seemingly different stripes but of one culture can not only meet, but (as they agreed to do) meet again and again. Sgt. Crowley assists Prof...

White House Beer Garden
2009-07-31 02:01:00 Today, the White House garden turned into a beer garden as President Obama hosted Professor Gates and Sgt. James Crowley. Who cares what they talked about and who cares what they drank. Look at what they're sitting on. The outdoor furniture looks like something my mom would have bought from Kmart growing up. I'm talking Kmart before Martha Stewart.In this video from CBSNews you can clearly see what looks like garden furniture behind Sgt. James Crowley. Is that cast iron? Vintage? It looks nice. A lot nicer than the flimsy looking patio set they put on display for the photo op. I love the visual of the bartender walking up to four men sitting in furniture that looks like it...
This moment of racial healing brought to you by...beer?
2009-07-28 07:01:00 The question is, when our nation finds itself transfixed by a media-fueled police racial controversy, how do we resolve it? The Gates debacle does not lend itself to the usual resolutions. Sgt. Crowley's conduct was not criminal, so we don't have the calls for federal investigation and indictment that often accompany this type of incident. Henry Louis Gates, Jr. has retained an attorney, as has the woman who made the 911 call that started the whole incident. There might yet be lawsuits, but for now at least the lawyers are holding off. Politicians love to form commissions and blue-ribbon panels to show that they're doing something, and I'm sure we'll see one in this case soon enough. Like I said...
President Obama's beer bust with Gates and Crowley: a beer poll
2009-07-26 06:30:00 More at Zennie62.com | Follow me on Twitter! | Get my widget! | Visit YouTube | Visit UShow.com YouTube.com , Yahoo, MySpace, Metacafe, DailyMotion, Blip.tv, StupidVideos, Sclipo and Viddler What started as a calamity threatening to divide America has seemingly ended in a planned beer bust at the White House, courtesy of President Barack Obama himself. The ill-advised (in my opinion) arrest of Harvard Professor Henry Lewis Gates by Cambridge Police Officer Sgt. James Crowley four days ago caught the attention of the nation, but it was President Obama's comment that the Cambridge Police "acted stupidly" and the rather terrible response by the Cambridge Police Union at its press conference , which created a much-needed national conversation about race, law enforcement, and American culture. Regardless of where you stand on this issue, there's no doubt that it has been the political talk of the day, even if much of it was disjointed, nasty, and ignorant, especially on...

Obama's Overhaul of Financial Regulations Should Include Beer-Based Tr
2009-06-22 14:29:00 Photo credit: Justin Sullivan/ Getty Image News Like most Americans, I understand what happened back in October when the economy collapsed, and I understand why: Shady mortgages, insane derivatives, nonsensical credit default swaps, lack of accountability and most importantly lack of oversight. Also like most Americans, I know something has to be done to stop all that BS from happening again. As far as what should be done, well, that's why back in November I hired this smart mofo, Obama, to do all that hard work. Look, I don't have time to overhaul the set of laws regulating the financial system -- I'm going to see "Drag Me to Hell" this week. That's why I chose Obama to get...

Beauty is in the Eye of the Beer Holder, Not Someone Who Wear This T-shirt
2009-06-17 16:30:00 We've all been there... well, some of you. Remember that last few cheeky tipples? That's what you need to lose your rational thought. Recently, I read an article saying researchers have proved that in the haze of drunkenness beer goggles really do exist! Meaning, some people you wouldn't even dream of fancying suddenly become God-sent under alcohol influence.Another research found that according to the psychology team at Bristol University, as little as a pint-and-a-half of beer can distort people's opinions. They get Vodka-fuelled dude volunteering and were asked to the attractiveness of 20 male and 20 female faces on a seven-point scale. The same faces were then shown to the other guys who consumed only soft drinks -- for comparison. And guess what, some boozers scored the faces around 10 per cent higher than those who had not drunk.What this T-shirt is saying: "Beauty is in the eye of the beer holder" is true, but that doesn't mean you can lose yourself while you hold that...
